Moravian stars in the Striezelmarkt in Dresden A Moravian star half assembled A completed Moravian star hanging by a church. A Moravian star (German: Herrnhuter Stern) is an illuminated decoration used during the Christian liturgical seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany representing the Star of Bethlehem pointing towards the infant Jesus.

A Moravian star hung outside a church A polyhedron which does not cross itself, such that all of the interior can be seen from one interior point, is an example of a star domain . The visible exterior portions of many self-intersecting star polyhedra form the boundaries of star domains, but despite their similar appearance, as abstract ...
Froebel stars as part of Christmas decoration. A Froebel star (German: Fröbelstern) is a Christmas decoration made of paper, common in Germany. [1] In English it does not have a commonly recognised name; it can be referred to as an Advent star, Danish star, German star, Nordic star, Pennsylvanian star, Polish star, Swedish star, Christmas star, or Froebel star.

In geometry, the complete or final stellation of the icosahedron [1] is the outermost stellation of the icosahedron, and is "complete" and "final" because it includes all of the cells in the icosahedron's stellation diagram. That is, every three intersecting face planes of the icosahedral core intersect either on a vertex of this polyhedron or ...
In geometry, a star polygon is a type of non-convex polygon. Regular star polygons have been studied in depth; while star polygons in general appear not to have been formally defined, certain notable ones can arise through truncation operations on regular simple or star polygons.
Moravians’ cultural influence in North Carolina also includes the Moravian star, which is part of the bill, too. Moravian cookies are a star attraction for NC. Could they become a state symbol?
In geometry, the small triambic icosahedron is a star polyhedron composed of 20 intersecting non-regular hexagon faces. It has 60 edges and 32 vertices , and Euler characteristic of −8. It is an isohedron , meaning that all of its faces are symmetric to each other.
In geometry, a dodecagram (from Greek δώδεκα (dṓdeka) 'twelve' and γραμμῆς (grammēs) 'line' [1]) is a star polygon or compound with 12 vertices. There is one regular dodecagram polygon (with Schläfli symbol {12/5} and a turning number of 5).
